Polished and elegant, the Abadia Retuerta Selección Especial 2012 will please everyone who tastes it. This red wine is posh from the start, with mature aromas of minerals, black fruit, licorice, and dark chocolate. The palate lives up to this bold opening, and even exceeds expectations. Voluptuous and excellently balanced in the mouth, polished tannins provide a graceful texture. The finish is long, elegant, and begs a second sip. Enjoy this red wine with a variety of meals, such as grilled lean red meats or Spanish-style cuisine.
